Holocaust hero to become honorary Aussie

THE late Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg will become an honorary Australian citizen for saving tens of thousands of Jews from the Holocaust in World War II.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard, who made the announcement on Monday, said it was the first time Australia was bestowing such an honour.

The award of becoming an honorary Australian citizen was a "symbolic recognition of Mr Wallenberg's tireless devotion to human life during the Holocaust".
